To change the subtitle language on Disney Plus, first play any of the shows or movies on the service. Pause the show or film and go to the little white rectangle with two lines on it in the top right of the screen. Click on it.
From there, the go to “Subtitles,” which is the second option in the middle. It depends on the content, but there will be a list of all supported subtitle languages. Newer content like The Mandalorian and Wandavision will have over a dozen languages to choose from including closed captioning. Be sure to confirm the language when hovering over it. The checkmark will be on the left of the chosen language.
There are also multiple options to customize the subtitles on the far right of the menu under “Subtitle Styling.”
How to change the audio language on Disney+
